This Sunday I’m launching a free workshop to all my newsletter subscribers. They don’t know about it yet. (Well, some of them do because they belong to my Mighty Networks teaching platform & I’ve been blabbing about it there already.) My free workshop is simply a summer solstice gift. It’s not a gimmick or a teaser to get you to buy something. It’s just a little technique I want to share because it makes me happy & I thought maybe it will make others happy too. You do have to be a subscriber to my newsletter to receive it though — so sign up! .. .. ., .. #conniesolera #art #artist #oilpastel #drawing #sketchbook #dailydrawing #dailysketch #holbeinoilpastels #abstractdrawing #makearteveryday #color #creativepractice #studiopractice #inspiration

In the last month I’ve made some big decisions in regards to my art, my business, & my life. It feels a little risky & absolutely necessary at the same time. But I’ve decided. Really decided. .. .. .. .. .. #conniesolera #paintingthefeminine #fearlesspainting #paintwisdom #mixedmedia #mixedmediaart #mixedmediaartist #painting #dailypainting #artjournaling #visualjournal #art #artist #womanartist #workingartist #creativepractice #studiopractice #artpractice
